Shown below are three tanks, tank 1 without an orifice tube and tanks 2 and 3 with orifice tubes as shown. Neglecting losses and assuming the diameter of orifice to be much less than that of the tank, write expressions for the exit velocity in each of the three tanks.

1. V₁ = √2gH
2. V₂ = √2g(H + L)
3. V₃ = √2g(H + L)
4. All of these

Correct Option: D

V₁ = √2gH
V₂ = √2g(H + L)
V₃ = √2g(H + L)
